Across
  1. 3. shorter wavelengths have less, higher frequency has more
  2. 4. The second highest energy EM waves. Short wavelengths, high frequency
  3. 6. The distance between two corresponding parts of a wave
  4. 7. Highest point of a wave
  5. 9. a particle of energy transferred in an EM wave
  6. 11. reflection of light in all directions
  7. 12. The number of waves that pass per a certain amount of time.
  8. 16. EM Waves - damaging higher energy waves, less energy than X-rays.
  9. 17. the combination of two or more waves that results in a single wave
  10. 18. The part of the EM spectrum that we can see arranged from low energy longer waves of Red to higher energy shorter waves of Violet. ROY G BIV
  11. 20. the passing of light through a medium
  12. 21. When waves bend around an object
  13. 24. the highest energy and shortest wavelength of visible light
  14. 25. A disturbance that transfers energy from place to place
  15. 27. Between a Radio and Infrared. Used for cell phones and Radar. Lower energy than visible light
  16. 28. For a wave or vibration, the maximum displacement on either side of the equilibrium (midpoint) position.
  17. 29. Material through which a wave travels
Down
  1. 1. demonstrates that light acts as a wave due to the diffraction and interference
  2. 2. The interference that occurs when two waves combine to make a wave with a smaller amplitude
  3. 5. the lowest point of a transverse wave
  4. 8. The interference that occurs when two waves combine to make a wave with a smaller amplitude
  5. 10. Highest frequency, shortest wavelength EM waves
  6. 13. When a wave passes from one medium to another and it changes speed/angles
  7. 14. When a wave's energy goes into a material.
  8. 15. No wave energy is absorbed and it is bounced off of a surface
  9. 19. EM waves used in remotes. Less energy than visible light more than Microwaves. Perceived as "heat".
  10. 22. the lowest energy and longest wavelength of visible light
  11. 23. EM waves with the longest wavelengths, lowest frequency, and lowest energy
  12. 26. The distance from crest to crest of a wave
